At noon, all the major families and forces received news from the First Research Institute.
Under Feng Yu's recommendation, a heaven-defying newcomer entered the Level 8 laboratory in less than three months, under Shi Fu's name, no less.
This newcomer was also someone they knew.
It happened to be the name they had heard many times recently—Qiao Nian.
The people who came to attend Ji Ziyin's birthday banquet today were more or less related to the Ji family. They had also heard some rumors circulating in the Ji family.
For example, Qiao Nian seemed to be inextricably linked to the Ji family.
As for the connection…
The Ji family kept it a secret.
However, many people knew that Ji Hongyuan's sudden support for Ji Ziyin had a lot to do with this monster newcomer, Qiao Nian.
One was the genius Ji Ziyin whom the Ji family had been praising for more than 10 years.
The other was a newcomer to the Independent Continent.
